this law will work. since we started administering instant background checks, more than 1.7 million felons, fugitives, domestic abusers and people with serious mental illnesses have been denied access to firearms. and that's under the system that exists today, with all of its loopholes and all of its flaws. and we've seen that women are less likely to be killed by an intimate partner in states that have expanded their own background check systems. and, look, about 90% of americans want us to pass this measure. 90%. this is not a republican idea. this is not a democratic idea. it's just a good idea. i think it would be a remarkable failure of our democracy if we can't get this done. and if we can't, i'm afraid it's because we've relied on fears and falsehoods instead of on facts. for instance, some have argued that an expanded background check system will result in a federal gun registry. but federal gun registries are banned under existing law, and the legislation that we are considering would not repeal
